The Hidden Cause of Food Deserts - The Atlantic: At the heart of almost every economic problem is the fac that judges decided to ignore anti-trust laws.

swindle all the way - by Allison Epstein: If Allison were ot write a history textbook, more kids would pay attention in class. You should be subscribing to her hilarious newsletter if you enjoy history. Or buy her books (non-commission link)

Night Desk Duty at the Infinite Paradox Hotel - Lightspeed Magazine: One for the math nerds.

A peek inside the restoration of the iconic Notre Dame cathedral - Ars Technica: interesting look at how the iconic cathedral was restored.

Six hours under martial law in Seoul - The Verge: Excellent reporting.

Rangers’ Filip Chytil and the ongoing concussion question facing NHLers: When is enough enough? - The Athletic: Good read that highlights why athletes sometimes need to be protected from themselves, but disappointed that CTE never appears in the article.

AI Generated Business: The Rise of AGI and the Rush to Find a Working Revenue Model - AI Now Institute: Good history of OpenAI’s complete inability to find a real business for its charbots.

Jordan Peterson interprets the Bible in ‘We Who Wrestle With God’ - The Washington Post: “It takes a special kind of spiritual dimwit to cast a text as fierce and mysterious as the Old Testament as a banal and scolding exhortation to make your bed, but Peterson, as it happens, is just that kind.” That might be the nicest line in the entire review.

Have a great week, everyone.
